Currently, if an acceptor peer deletes a peering the dialer's peering
will eventually get to a "terminated" state. If the two clusters need to
be re-peered the acceptor will re-generate the token but the dialer will
encounter this error on the call to establish:
"failed to get addresses to dial peer: failed to refresh peer server
addresses, will continue to use initial addresses: there is no active
peering for "<<<ID>>>""
This is because in `exchangeSecret().GetDialAddresses()` we will get an
error if fetching addresses for an inactive peering. The peering shows
up as inactive at this point because of the existing terminated state.
Rather than checking whether a peering is active we can instead check
whether it was deleted. This way users do not need to delete terminated
peerings in the dialing cluster before re-establishing them.
Protobuf Refactoring for Multi-Module Cleanliness
This commit includes the following:
Moves all packages that were within proto/ to proto/private
Rewrites imports to account for the packages being moved
Adds in buf.work.yaml to enable buf workspaces
Names the proto-public buf module so that we can override the Go package imports within proto/buf.yaml
Bumps the buf version dependency to 1.14.0 (I was trying out the version to see if it would get around an issue - it didn't but it also doesn't break things and it seemed best to keep up with the toolchain changes)
Why:
In the future we will need to consume other protobuf dependencies such as the Google HTTP annotations for openapi generation or grpc-gateway usage.
There were some recent changes to have our own ratelimiting annotations.
The two combined were not working when I was trying to use them together (attempting to rebase another branch)
Buf workspaces should be the solution to the problem
Buf workspaces means that each module will have generated Go code that embeds proto file names relative to the proto dir and not the top level repo root.
This resulted in proto file name conflicts in the Go global protobuf type registry.
The solution to that was to add in a private/ directory into the path within the proto/ directory.
That then required rewriting all the imports.
Is this safe?
AFAICT yes
The gRPC wire protocol doesn't seem to care about the proto file names (although the Go grpc code does tack on the proto file name as Metadata in the ServiceDesc)
Other than imports, there were no changes to any generated code as a result of this.
Re-add ServerExternalAddresses parameter in GenerateToken endpoint
This reverts commit 5e156772f6a7fba5324eb6804ae4e93c091229a6
and adds extra functionality to support newer peering behaviors.
When peering through mesh gateways we expect outbound dials to peer
servers to flow through the local mesh gateway addresses.
Now when establishing a peering we get a list of dial addresses as a
ring buffer that includes local mesh gateway addresses if the local DC
is configured to peer through mesh gateways. The ring buffer includes
the mesh gateway addresses first, but also includes the remote server
addresses as a fallback.
This fallback is present because it's possible that direct egress from
the servers may be allowed. If not allowed then the leader will cycle
back to a mesh gateway address through the ring.
When attempting to dial the remote servers we retry up to a fixed
timeout. If using mesh gateways we also have an initial wait in
order to allow for the mesh gateways to configure themselves.
Note that if we encounter a permission denied error we do not retry
since that error indicates that the secret in the peering token is
invalid.
A previous commit introduced an internally-managed server certificate
to use for peering-related purposes.
Now the peering token has been updated to match that behavior:
- The server name matches the structure of the server cert
- The CA PEMs correspond to the Connect CA
Note that if Conect is disabled, and by extension the Connect CA, we
fall back to the previous behavior of returning the manually configured
certs and local server SNI.
Several tests were updated to use the gRPC TLS port since they enable
Connect by default. This means that the peering token will embed the
Connect CA, and the dialer will expect a TLS listener.
Previously there was a field indicating the operation that triggered a
secrets write. Now there is a message for each operation and it contains
the secret ID being persisted.
Previously the updates to the peering secrets UUID table relied on
inferring what action triggered the update based on a reconciliation
against the existing secrets.
Instead we now explicitly require the operation to be given so that the
inference isn't necessary. This makes the UUID table logic easier to
reason about and fixes some related bugs.
There is also an update so that the peering secrets get handled on
snapshots/restores.
Ensure that the peer stream replication rpc can successfully be used with TLS activated.
Also:
- If key material is configured for the gRPC port but HTTPS is not
enabled now TLS will still be activated for the gRPC port.
- peerstream replication stream opened by the establishing-side will now
ignore grpc.WithBlock so that TLS errors will bubble up instead of
being awkwardly delayed or suppressed
Previously, public referred to gRPC services that are both exposed on
the dedicated gRPC port and have their definitions in the proto-public
directory (so were considered usable by 3rd parties). Whereas private
referred to services on the multiplexed server port that are only usable
by agents and other servers.
Now, we're splitting these definitions, such that external/internal
refers to the port and public/private refers to whether they can be used
by 3rd parties.
This is necessary because the peering replication API needs to be
exposed on the dedicated port, but is not (yet) suitable for use by 3rd
parties.
Peer replication is intended to be between separate Consul installs and
effectively should be considered "external". This PR moves the peer
stream replication bidirectional RPC endpoint to the external gRPC
server and ensures that things continue to function.
When deleting a peering we do not want to delete the peering and all
imported data in a single operation, since deleting a large amount of
data at once could overload Consul.
Instead we defer deletion of peerings so that:
1. When a peering deletion request is received via gRPC the peering is
marked for deletion by setting the DeletedAt field.
2. A leader routine will monitor for peerings that are marked for
deletion and kick off a throttled deletion of all imported resources
before deleting the peering itself.
This commit mostly addresses point #1 by modifying the peering service
to mark peerings for deletion. Another key change is to add a
PeeringListDeleted state store function which can return all peerings
marked for deletion. This function is what will be watched by the
deferred deletion leader routine.
Previously, imported data would never be deleted. As
nodes/services/checks were registered and deregistered, resources
deleted from the exporting cluster would accumulate in the imported
cluster.
This commit makes updates to replication so that whenever an update is
received for a service name we reconcile what was present in the catalog
against what was received.
This handleUpdateService method can handle both updates and deletions.
